Bug Description

Binary package hint: f-spot

I've been using f-spot for years to upload reduced-size photos to flickr, but lately I have almost always gotten the message "POST size too large. Try something smaller, mmkay?" whenever I try to upload any number of photos. Last night I was able to upload 2 photos but then the next batch I tried failed. I'm certain that the post size is not actually too large, because it happens even when I attempt to upload a photo of 100kb. I am able to upload using Shotwell or the Flickr web interface. It would be great if I could again use f-spot for this purpose. Thanks.

Mmmmm its a MTU problem, but it only affects to .Net libflickr so in my case and any others it solved changing the MTU to 1200. That's the command for those that don't know how to do:

sudo ip link set mtu 1200 dev wlan0

changing wlan0 with your network device

enjoy!!
